Lords division · 8 Nov 2000 · No. 1

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Blatch, after Clause 38, to insert the new Clause (Use of electronic communications to incite an act of gross indecency with a child); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 81

Contents: 104 Not Contents: 185

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 81 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Contents (102)
